FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods to group terms based on context to facilitate determining intent of a dictated command.

BACKGROUND

Personnel and other professionals of various industries may utilize speech recognition platforms to dictate, transcribe, and generate notes and/or commands. The generated note and/or commands may be further processed to determine the commands. In some instances, the command may contain terms the processor has not encountered before and therefore is uncertain of the intent.

SUMMARY

One aspect of the present disclosure includes determining the intent of a command that includes a term a system has not encountered before. The system may obtain a transcript representing audio dictation of a user that includes the unknown term. The system may communicate with a model trained to group terms of the same context. The model may generate a set of vectors that numerically represent the unknown term and other terms of the transcript. The model may compare the set of vectors with a space of a vector space that is of the same context as the transcript. Upon comparison, it may be determined the set of vectors correlates to the space and to a known vector of the space. Thus, utilizing text represented by the known vector in lieu of the unknown term may clarify the intent of the command.

Another aspect of the present disclosure includes training the model the system communicated with. Training the model includes obtain a set of writings of a knowledge domain that include various terms, including the known term. Vectors for each of the various terms may be generated to numerically represent the individual term and its context. The vectors generated may be grouped in the space of the vector space based on similar context.

One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a system configured to utilize a term grouping model to determine intent of a command with a new spoken term. The term grouping model may be configured to group terms based on a particular context. The system may include one or more hardware processors configured by machine-readable instructions. Machine-readable instructions may include one or more instruction components. The instruction components may include one or more of obtaining component, employ component, utilize component, and/or other components.

Obtaining component may be configured to obtain a transcript automatically generated from audio dictation of a user. The transcript may result from automatic speech recognition and include instances of transcribed terms automatically derived from the audio dictation as textual representations of spoken terms in the audio dictation. The transcribed terms may include an instance of a new transcribed term.

Obtaining component may be configured to facilitate communication with the term grouping model.

Employ component may be configured to employ a model trained by the term grouping model. The trained model may generate a primary set of vectors that numerically represents the text of the transcribed terms of the transcript and context of the instances of the transcribed terms of the transcript. The primary set of vectors may include a primary vector to represent the text of the new transcribed term and context of the instance of the new transcribed term.

Employ component may be configured to obtain a first space in the vector space. The first space in the vector space may represent text of transcribed terms of the same context of the instances of the transcribed terms of the transcript. The first space may include the primary set of vectors, except the primary vector, and may include a first vector that represents text of an alternative term of the context of the instances of the transcribed terms of the transcript.

Utilize component may be configured to compare the primary set of vectors to the vectors of the first space. Comparison may determine the primary vector correlates to the first space. Such comparison indicates the primary vector and the first vector in the first space are equivalent. Utilize component may be configured to store the correlation between the primary vector and the first vector.

Utilize component may be configured to utilize the text of the alternative term in the instance of the new transcribed term. The utilization of the text of the alternative term that is represented by the first vector does not change the implication of transcript because the primary vector and the first vector in the first space are equivalent.

Another aspect of the present disclosure relates to a system configured to group terms based on context (i.e., the term grouping model). The system may include one or more hardware processors configured by machine-readable instructions. Machine-readable instructions may include one or more instruction components. The instruction components may include one or more of obtaining component, vector generation model, training component, and/or other instruction components. Such system (i.e., the term grouping model) may be configured to train a model to group terms based on context prior to a system utilizing of the model (e.g., the system described above).

A distinct obtaining component may be configured to obtain a set of writings within a particular knowledge domain. The individual writings may include terms. The terms may include transcribed terms automatically derived from audio dictations representing various speech from a user that resulted from automatic speech recognition as textual representations of spoken terms in the audio dictations and/or published terms of literatures of the particular knowledge domain. The terms may include instances of a first term that is part of a lexicography of the knowledge domain.

Training component may be configured to obtain a vector generation model that generates vectors for individual instances of the terms in the set of writings that are part of a lexicography of the knowledge domain. The vectors numerically may represent the text of the terms and contexts of the instances of the terms. The contexts of the instances of the terms may include the other terms in the individual writings and/or syntactic relationship with the instances of the terms.

The training component may be configured to use the vector generation model to generate a first set of vectors are generated that represent the instances of the first term. Such vectors numerically represent the text of the first term and different contexts of the individual instances of the first term. The first set of vectors may include a first vector that numerically represents the text of the first term and the context of a first instance of the first term.

The training component may be configured to use the vector generation model to generate other vectors are generated that represent instances of the other terms of the set of writings. Such vectors may numerically represent the text of the individual other terms and different contexts of the individual instances of the individual other terms.

The training component may be configured to train the vector generation model to group the vectors of a similar context in a space of a vector space. Such training may cause the first vector and the other vectors are grouped in the first space of the vector space.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 illustrates a system 100 configured to utilize a term grouping model to determine intent of a command with a new spoken term, in accordance with one or more implementations. The term group model may be the same as or similar to system 200, in accordance with one or more implementations.

In some implementations, system 100 may include one or more servers 102. Server(s) 102 may be configured to communicate with one or more client computing platforms 104 according to a client/server architecture and/or other architectures. Client computing platform(s) 104 may be configured to communicate with other client computing platforms via server(s) 102 and/or according to a peer-to-peer architecture and/or other architectures. Users may access system 100 via client computing platform(s) 104.

Server(s) 102 may be configured by machine-readable instructions 106. Machine-readable instructions 106 may include one or more instruction components. The instruction components may include computer program components. The instruction components may include one or more of obtaining component 108, employ component 110, utilize component 112, and/or other components.

Obtaining component 108 may be configured to obtain a transcript automatically generated from audio dictation of a user. The transcript may result from automatic speech recognition. The transcript may include instances of transcribed terms automatically derived from the audio dictation as textual representations of spoken terms in the audio dictation. The transcribed terms may include an instance of a new transcribed term.

FIG. 4A-D illustrates an example implementation of system 100 and system 200 described herein, in accordance with one or more implementations. FIG. 4A may illustrate scenario 400 including recording information after an appointment and interfaces presenting the information. Scenario 400 may include doctor 402 (i.e., recording user). Doctor 402 may dictate audio 404 into mobile tablet 104 a. Based on audio 404, transcript 406 may be generated including unidentified term 408 system 100 has not encountered before and must determine the intent.

Referring back to FIG. 1 , obtaining component 108 may be configured to facilitate communication with system 200 (i.e., the term grouping model). System 200 may train a model to group terms based on a particular context. Regarding the example implementation of FIG. 4 -D, the particular context may be kidneys and terms related to kidneys. Communication with system 200 may be via thumb drive, communication over a network, and/or other modes of communication.

FIG. 2 illustrates a system 200 configured to group terms based on context, in accordance with one or more implementations. In some implementations, system 200 may include one or more servers 202.

Server(s) 202 may be configured by machine-readable instructions 206. Machine-readable instructions 206 may include one or more instruction components. The instruction components may include computer program components. The instruction components may include one or more of obtaining component 208, vector generation model 210, training component 212, and/or other instruction components.

Obtaining component 208 may be configured to obtain a set of writings within a particular knowledge domain. By way of non-limiting example, the set of writings may include transcripts of notes of the user (e.g., notes derived from audio dictations of the users), books (e.g., medical textbooks, auto manuals), theses, articles (e.g., research articles, clinical trial reports, case reports, review articles, etc.), transcribed lectures, and/or other writings. Transcripts of notes of the user may facilitate tailoring the model for the user. By way of non-limiting example, the particular knowledge domain may include medical field, automotive field, law and law enforcement, civil engineering, and/or other knowledge domains. In some implementations, the particular knowledge domain may be a narrowed focus of the particular knowledge domain. By way of non-limiting example, a narrowed focus of the medical field knowledge domain may include a narrowed focus on the kidney organs.

The individual writings may include terms. The terms may include words and/or phrases. The terms may include transcribed terms, published terms of literatures of the particular knowledge domain, and/or others. The transcribed terms may be automatically derived from audio dictations representing various speech from the user. The transcribed terms may result from automatic speech recognition as textual representations of spoken terms in the audio dictations. The published terms may be recognized from literature (e.g., research article). The terms may include instances of a first term that is part of a lexicography of the knowledge domain.

Referring to FIG. 4B, writing 410 a, writing 410 b, and writing 410 c may be obtained and include term 412 (i.e., instances of the first term), “kidney”. Writing 410 a may include term 414, writing 410 b may include term 416, and writing 410 c may include term 418. Terms 414, 416, and 418 may be other terms within the context of the respective writing.

Referring back to FIG. 2 , training component 212 may be configured to obtain vector generation model 210 that generates vectors. The generated vectors may be for individual instances of the terms in the set of writings that are part of a lexicography of the knowledge domain. The vectors may numerically represent the text of the terms and contexts of the instances of the terms. The contexts of the instances of the terms may include the other terms in the individual writings, syntactic relationship with the instances of the first term, location of the user, title of the user (e.g., physician's assistant, nurse, doctor, surgeon, etc.), user behavior of the user, and/or other contexts.

By way of non-limiting example, location of the user may indicate the user's accent and how the user pronounces terms. The user may have a title of surgeon and use certain terms often that a physical's assistant would not use often. The user may have a user behavior of using acronyms and/or abbreviations instead of using an entire term.

Training component 212 may be configured to use vector generation model 210 to generate the vectors. A first set of vectors may be generated that represent the instances of the first term (e.g., term 412 of FIG. 4B). The first set of vectors may numerically represent the text of the first term and different contexts of the individual instances of the first term. The first set of vectors may include a first vector that numerically represents the text of the first term and the context of a first instance of the first term.

Training component 212 may be configured to use vector generation model 210 to generate other vectors are that represent instances of the other terms of the set of writings (e.g., terms, 414, 416, and 418 of FIG. 4B). The other vectors may numerically represent the text of the individual other terms and different contexts of the individual instances of the individual other terms.

Referring to back to FIG. 2 , training component 212 may be configured to train vector generation model 210 to group the vectors of a similar context in a space of a vector space. Training vector generation model 210 may cause the first vector and the other vectors, or some of the other vectors, to grouped in a first space of the vector space. The first space of the vector space may include the first set of vectors in addition to the first vector because the first set of vectors numerically represent the text of the first term and the different contexts (e.g., syntactic relationships) of the individual instances of the first term yet similar contexts (e.g., similar other terms in the writings).

Referring to FIG. 4C, FIG. 4C may illustrate vector space 400 c. Vector space 400 c may include space 420. Vector 412 a (i.e., the first vector) may represent an instance of term 412 in writings 410 a-410 c. Likewise, vector 414 a may represent an instance of term 414 in writing 410 a, vector 416 a may represent an instance of term 416 in writing 410 b, and vector 418 a may represent an instance of term 418 in writing 410 c (i.e., the other vectors). Because terms 414, 416, and 418 are present in contexts of writings that include term 412 (or several instance of term 412), vectors 412 a, 414 a, 416 a, and 418 a may be grouped in space 420. Such grouping may indicate that term 412-418 are of the same context (i.e., related to kidneys).

Training vector generation model 210 may include determining co-occurrence probability between the instances of the first term and the other terms that are part of the lexicography of the domain, determining mutual information between the instances of the first term and the other terms that are part of the lexicography of the domain, and/or other determinations that may train vector generation model 210 to group the vectors of the similar context in the first space of the vector space. The vectors of the similar context in the first space of the vector space may have been previously trained such that vectors representing the text of incorrectly transcribed terms are correlated to vectors representing the text of correctly transcribed terms and grouped in the first space.

Functions executed by the components of system 200 may occur prior to execution of system 100 such that system 200 trains the model prior to employment of the model. Upon training, the model may be stored to electronic storage 220. Upon any further training, the model may be re-stored and/or updated to electronic storage 220.

Referring back to FIG. 1 , employ component 110 may be configured to employ the model trained by system 200 (i.e., the term grouping model). The trained model may generate, via system 200, a primary set of vectors (e.g., vector set 422 of FIG. 4C) that numerically represents the text of the transcribed terms of the transcript and context of the instances of the transcribed terms of the transcript. The primary set of vectors may include a primary vector (e.g., vector 408 a of FIG. 4C) that numerically represents the text of the new transcribed term (e.g., term 408 of FIG. 4A) and context of the instance of the new transcribed term.

Referring back to FIG. 4C, vector set 422 may be generated based on the transcribed terms of transcript 406. Vector set 422 may include generated vector 408 a, vector 414 a, vector 416 a, and vector 418 a to represent terms “renal”, “high blood pressure”, “diabetes”, and “heart attack”, respectively, present in transcript 406.

Employ component 110 may be configured to obtain the first space in the vector space. The first space in the vector space may represent text of transcribed terms of the context of the instances of the transcribed terms of the transcript. The first space may have been generated by obtained vector generation model 210 and used by system 200. The first space may be obtained from the model trained by system 200. The first space may include the primary set of vectors except the primary vector and may include the first vector (e.g., vector 412 a of example in FIG. 4C). The first vector may represent text of an alternative term of the context of the instances of the transcribed terms of the transcript. In other words, the text of the new transcribed term from the transcript (that is represented by the primary vector) may be interchanged with the text of the alternative term (that is represented by the first vector) and still maintain the same implication.

Referring back to FIG. 4C, the model may have obtained space 420. Evidently, vectors 414 a, 416 a, and 418 a that represented terms present in transcript 406 are too present in space 420, but not vector 408 a. Additionally, space 420 includes vector 412 a.

Utilize component 112 may be configured to compare the primary set of vectors to the vectors of the first space. The primary set of vectors, except the primary vector, may be similar to or the same as the other vectors grouped into the first space of the vector space. As previously mentioned, the other vectors represent instances of other terms of the set of writings that are of the similar context as the first vector. Therefore, the comparison may determine the primary set of vectors correlate to the vectors of the first space and/or the primary vector correlates to the first vector based on determined similarities, equivalences, and/or other determined relationships between the vectors and/or first space. In other words, the comparison may determine grouping the primary set of vectors, including the primary vector, in the first space is reasonable. Such comparison indicates that the primary vector and the first vector correlate and are the same or have similar meaning, or both.

Referring back to FIG. 4C, upon comparison of vector set 422 with space 420, it is determined that the vectors of vector set 422 are present in space 420, except 408 a. Upon comparison between vector 408 a and 412 a, it is determined that the intent of the terms vector 408 a (“renal) and 412 a (“kidney”) represent are the same or similar.

As previously mentioned, the first space in the vector space that represents the text of terms of the context of the instances of the transcribed terms of the transcript may result from training the model by system 200 (i.e., the term grouping model) to group vectors of the similar context.

As previously mentioned, training the model by system 200 to group the vectors of the similar context includes obtaining a set of writings within the particular knowledge domain. The individual writings including terms. The terms may include transcribed terms automatically derived from audio dictations representing various speech from the user and/or published terms of literatures of the particular knowledge domain. The transcribed terms may result from automatic speech recognition as textual representations of spoken terms in the audio dictations. The terms may include instances of the alternative term that is represented by the first vector.

Utilize component 112 may be configured to store the correlation between the primary vector and the first vector and/or the correlation between the primary set of vectors and the vectors of the first space. The correlations may be stored to electronic storage 118. Such stored correlation may direct future instances of the new transcribed term to the first space and/or the first vector to determine the intent of the new transcribed term.

Utilize component 112 may be configured to utilize the text of the alternative term (e.g., term 412, “kidney”, of FIG. 4B) in the instance of the new transcribed term (e.g., term 408, “renal”, in FIG. 4A). The utilization may be based on the comparison of the primary set of vectors and the vectors of the first space that determined the primary vector correlates to the first vector. Thus, utilizing the text of the alternative term, that is represented by the first vector, instead of the instance of the new transcribed term maintains intent of the new transcribed term and does not change the implication of the transcript.

Utilizing the text of the alternative term (e.g., term 412 of FIG. 4B) in the instance of the new transcribed term (e.g., term 408, “renal”, in FIG. 4A) may include implementing the new transcribed term, the alternative term, or some other term that represents a syntactical meaning shared by the new transcribed term and the alternative term to infer intent of the user (e.g., author or speaker) of the new transcribed term. This may include substituting the text of the new transcribed term and/or of the other term that represents the shared syntactical meaning in text to be presented to the user or other users, in a command executed by system 100, and/or in other contexts. Utilizing the text of the alternative term (or the meaning thereof) may enhance accuracy and/or precision of system 100 in inferring intent of the user of the new transcribed term. Such enhanced accuracy and/or precision may enhance operation of system 100 in taking any number of actions based on the transcription and/or other textual content in which the new transcribed term appears. In some implementations, the substitution of the new transcribed term for the alternative term by utilize component 112 may be internal to system 100. That is, utilize component 112 may make a substitution or co-use of the new transcribed term for or with the alternative term in a way that is not conveyed to any user (e.g., a substitution is not conveyed through any user interface, but instead the new transcribed term is left in the text presented). In some implementations, utilize component 112 may cause transmission of the correlation between the primary vector and the first vector and/or the correlation between the set of primary vectors and the first space to another system.

Utilizing the text of the alternative term (e.g., term 412 of FIG. 4B) in the instance of the new transcribed term (e.g., term 408, “renal”, in FIG. 4A) may include replacing the instance of the new transcribed term (e.g., term 408, “renal”, in FIG. 4A) with the text of the alternative term that is represented by the first vector (e.g., term 412, “kidney”, of FIG. 4B) such that the transcript is updated. The replacement does not change the implication or intent of the transcript. The transcript, upon replacement, may be stored to electronic storage 118 such that users (e.g., other personnel) may access the transcript.

Concluding the example of FIG. 4A-D, FIG. 4D illustrates transcript 406 and correlation 426 between “renal” and “kidney” such that doctor 402 ordered a blood panel for kidney failure when doctor 402 dictated “renal failure” in audio 404, not changing the intent of the command present in audio 404.
